ShopNBC Beautiful You

ShopNBC is having a "Beautiful You" event on March 23rd and 24th where you'll be able to shop this televised event packed with head-to-toe beauty products and they sent me a box full of goodies that will be featured!  I wanted to do a review of my favorite products and you'll be able to shop the event in a few days!

This kit from Skinn Cosmetics was the first thing that I opened.  I love the purple theme they put together and everything goes together so well.  The smudge stick is the perfect base to use under the shadows (which has great color payoff) and the gloss is just a hint of sparkle.

I love the packaging from Lola!  All of it is so darling.  The lipstick is super moisturizing and long lasting and love that it comes with a little pop up mirror.  Comes in handy not only for touch ups but for teeth checks too!  The Universal Colorless Powder comes in the cutest container with a fun little poof but I love the product.  I pat it on over my face after I've applied my makeup.  It's the perfect last step to cover imperfections and set your makeup.

I'm generally not a very hairy person and I can go for a bit without shaving but I actually hate shaving.  It's just one of those things that annoys me when I have to do it but of course I do it.  I've thought about doing laser hair removal but didn't have the time to commit to all those sessions so was very happy to see that ShopNBC had sent me a Silk'n SensEpil.  This device actually uses a light technology to remove hair!  You can use it all over your body and it's even safe enough to use on your face.  You're supposed to see results in 4 weeks.  I've just started using it but if you guys are interested, I can do a follow up and let you know how it goes.  I'm actually so excited to see if this works because I would love to not have to shave my legs again!

Other products that I received from ShopNBC:

• Magnifibres Brush on false lashes

I'm still going through a bunch of the products as there is no way I can get all through these products so quickly but everything that I've tried so far I'm very happy with.  Don't forget to check out the live event and you can shop online here.

Latest Beauty Buys

Just a few new beauty loves that I had to share.

I passed by this Revlon display for their new polish called "Moon Candy" and I loved the creme polish with the glitter, except this isn't regular small pieces of glitter, more like flakes of glitter!  I brought two home and they are gorgeous and so different than all my other polishes.  I love the effect. 

I didn't get a chance to take pics of my nails before they chipped so they look terrible right now but as you can see from the pictures from The PolishAholic, the glitter is a bit piece-y but it looks so great in the natural light as the colors reflect differently.

go to her post to see the rest of the colors!

Absolutely loving this "liquid lipstick" from NYX.  The lip creams go on like lipstick but very creamy and last for a really long time!  $12 for all 3, you can't beat that!  (Nordstrom Rack is now selling NYX if you guys didn't know.  I know for me it's hard to come by in our drugstores so I was glad to see it at Nordstrom Rack.)

Laura Mercier Creme Cheek Color and Lip Stain is a staple in my every day routine.  Just the right colors, I have the Cheek color in Praline and the Lip Stain in Shy Pink and are perfect for the "I'm wearing make up but not" kind of days.

For awhile now I've use the Anastasia brow powder for my eyebrows but recently discovered the TouchBack Brow Marker and it's awesome!  It totally blends in and is a bit easier in application than powder.  I never thought I'd use a "marker" for my brows but they totally fill in my sparse brows and looks really natural.

 It comes in lots of different colors to perfectly match your brows.

I don't really use lip liners as I usually just slap on a lipstick or lip gloss and be done with it, however the Smashbox Nude Lip Liner completely changed my mind about needing a lip liner.  It really is a "nude" to match your lip color and once I apply it, it doesn't change the color of my lipstick or lip gloss but it does help the color stay a lot longer.

Laura Mercier Art Deco Muse

I posted on my instagram a pic of my accessories and lippies and I just had to tell you how obsessed I am with this Laura Mercier Lip Glace in Gilded Veil.  It's the perfect color for the holiday season and looks amazing layered over other colors.

It's part of Laura Mercier's Limited Edition Art Deco Muse collection.

My favorites from the collection:

Illuminating Eye Color

Faux Lash Mascara 

Nail Lacquer in Crimson, Modern Red and Noir Glace

Lip Lacquer in Lacquer Rouge

Lip Glace Gilded Veil

I'm also really loving the Graphic Liquid Eye Liner.  I've been using it almost every day since I got it.  The liner goes on really thick so you have to be really careful with the application.  I've been dotting it on my eyelid and then smudging it to create a thin smooth line.  What I love best though, is that the staying power is awesome.  It lasts through the entire day and does not smudge at all.  Once it's on, it's on! 

And just a closer look at the mascara brush.  I love how full it is, it really covers every lash and brings out every your smallest lashes.  With a gentle touch, you can use it on your bottom lashes as well and it doesn't smudge.
